acceptance

Does applying disadvantaged on app increases your chances of acceptance or receiving a scholarship? Any URM who applied disadvantaged and got accepted to schools,do you think that claiming disadvantaged on app somewhat helped in getting you accepted?

Hello SDN family! Got a little break from work so I decided to do a chance me. I haven't taken the DAT just yet, but I'm hoping for a 21-22 whenever I do take it. I know it's silly for me to post this now before knowing but I just want your feedback! Major: BA Economics GPA: 3.8 oGPA, 3.7 sGPA...

In these videos I share how I was able to get my application reviewed even with a low GPA, get an interview and finally prepare for my first week of class. Besides going to PT school I spend my days helping prePT students, especially people with low GPA like I was. You have any questions, shoot...

I've realized that even though I've succeeded at my goal to get into med school, I don't feel any different. I walk into the grocery store and nobody stops to congratulate me, the employees don't offer me discounts, and strangers don't ask what tier school I got into. Where's the respect? The...

Hey guys and girls, My first app cycle was unsuccessful, but I'm not letting it get me too down as I've completed some new apps for different BMS masters programs. I've applied to: BU-Oral Health Sciences NYU - Oral Biology Rutgers BMS Tufts BMS Wayne State BMS Nova BMS George...

So long story short, I paid my second deposit at one dental school and am planning on going there unless I get moved up from the waitlist and get accepted to another school. Will the school where I deposited my fees deny my admission if they find out I am on the waitlist at the other school?

So 95% of people in my classes, who I work with, etc., Are planning on going to med school. But I feel like there is no way they will ALL get in. But all of them are very easily able to say "I'm going to med school" or "I'm going to be a doctor" or "by that time I'll be in med school." I don't...

Hey all you people! Just taking a survey of those who applied to Maryland and were waitlisted. Just wanted to get a nice survey going that can help future applicants gauge the waitlist movement for future cycles. Just vote on if you're in state or out of state and comment in this thread whether...

Just wanted to see if anyone has received any acceptances, waitlists, or rejections from Maryland since 1/20. The school has been silent and a lot of post December interviewees (including myself) are waiting to hear back. The expected wait time according to admissions was said to be not set and...

I have heard absolutely nothing from these three schools, yet I know others have - I applied very early in the cycle to all three programs, and am wondering if this bodes well or if maybe the opposite? I have a promising waitlist position and an acceptance elsewhere, but am curious as to why I...

Hey all, Has anyone heard from East Carolina University's MSOT program? I know their website says they will send out acceptances via email mid-late February, so we are in that window now. Im just impatient and was wondering if anyone has heard??

Deleted.

Hi All! I believe the interview phase is over, and that admissions and acceptances should be sent out by Feb 10th, 2017? I was wondering if anyone has heard from UOP (University of the Pacific) yet?

I was accepted to my first medical school and they sent me login into their system and want me to say I intend to matriculate. If I do that does that mean I commit to them and should wait until end of April to do so? Or does it not matter if I indicate I want to matriculate to multiple schools...

Since the threads on this are over ten years old I wanted some new advice on this issue. I have some professional connections who work at three dental schools and was wondering the extent that that can help? Do dental schools function based off of connections that aren't just from donors? Such...

Hello SDN, Sorry to add yet another thread like this to the pile but I would appreciate any feedback possible regarding a decision on acceptance between PCOM and Touro Nevada. As far as cost of living goes I am not too worried about it, I am just concerned about facilities, the respective...

Hi all, So I just received a NYCOM interview today for the westbury campus. I actually live 5-7 min from the campus. Needless to say I'm overjoyed at the opportunity to interview at such a great school. I have an acceptance to ACOM, put the deposit down, and even booked a room for living. So...

Hello, I have received an invitation to attend IUSO admission day. GPA ~3.5 and OAT scores: BIO:400, CHEM:400, ORGO:400, RC: 370, QR: 370, PHYSICS: 360 I was wondering if these scores matter after being invited to the admissions day? Is everyone on the same level who is invited to a admission...

I searched a bit, but couldn't find anything regarding my specific question. I have received an offer from one school and still have 2 interviews scheduled. One of those interviews is April 25th, so I am fairly certain I will not hear about my status for at least a few weeks. Would I have to...

Please help! I am trying to decide between OSU and McGovern. I need some help comparing them. I am not a state resident of either and understand that McGovern would be cheaper. I also know that OSU is ranked a little higher with regard to research. But here are some questions: How does...

Hey everybody, I was just recently accepted to NIU and wanted to see who else was accepted/attending.

Hello Fellow Pre-Dents, So, I was fortunate to have one interview for dental school, and even more so when I got a letter of acceptance. Now I am kind of in a bind as far as criminal background history. I was pulled over in Sept 2015 while driving under the influence (would not recommend to...

I was just wondering if anybody has received their acceptance letter from Northern Illinois University's DPT Program starting the Fall 2017 semester?

Hey guys! I just finished my pharmCAS form for U of CO - Skaggs SOP since they extended their deadline. Curious if anyone else recently applied and if they'd heard back or if anyone knows how many people are already accepted by this point in the year!

Is anyone planning on attending UMHB's new program? Asking because I only know of two others and want to get a better idea of the living situation in belton and discuss the program a little bit

I'm a prankster, and a huge fan of this med school. But I have to say, even though this prank was an epic fail, it still gave me the feels. Go Blue! Dude's face, "You're videotaping me" killed it. :rofl: Hide the camera better next time, UMich!

So I mailed my offer of acceptance and deposit on Dec 20th and it was suppose to be delivered on Dec 23rd. I tracked my package and they said they tried to deliver the package but no one was there to accept it. I was wondering if anyone else has had the issue in the past and what happen. I'm...

I interviewed at the beginning of December and was accepted to the Mary Baldwin/Murphy Deming OTD program. I am hoping to connect with other students who have been accepted to the 2020 OTD (or PT) class

Good news: I've just been accepted! Background : I was cited a couple years ago for underage drinking, which was all dropped in a day or so and nothing ever came of it. My lawyer assured me it was taken care of, that it was not an arrest, and I could put no on all the forms when asked about...

So... I know a lot of people are struggling with this. But, here's my situation. Undergrad at NYU 515 MCAT 3.8 GPA 1.5 years of research in behavioral neuro lab 1 year of research in computational lab 6 months volunteering in a hospital volunteered for a couple weeks in Costa Rica I have been...

I am from So Cal and I have never been away from home, so moving to the East Coast would be a major life change for me. So I am still in shock but I received a letter of acceptance from Salus. The letter says I have 14 days to decide or put the $500 deposit. I am still waiting to hear back...

Hi eveyrone! So It finally came I am accepted into dental school! However im worried because right now Biochemistry isn't going as well as it should and I have a 74 in the class. I was just wondering if I get a C overall will my acceptance to Dental school be jeopardized? Thanks for the...

I have an interview next week but I am wondering if the interviewer will ask the status of my pre-December interviews. As it stands, I was accepted to one school! However, the school next week is my top choice so I am looking for advice as to how I should handle that if it comes up (which I am...

Hey all, started this thread! Let us keep our heads up and not be bummed out. There are many people who got multiple offers, so many offers will open up for us! We just have to be impatiently patient lol.

I've been told that schools deciding to not make students pay a deposit to hold their spot is a fairly new thing. I've also heard rumors from people that this might be screwing up some schools acceptances. For instance, I know of an applicant who is currently holding onto 6 acceptances so far...

So I interviewed at Shenandoah on Friday the 18th. I knew they wouldn't get back to me until after Thanksgiving but it's been almost 2 weeks now. Normally I'd be more patient but I also interviewed at howard on saturday the 19th and got my acceptance the day before Thanksgiving. I have until...

Greetings everyone! I'm new to this forum so please spare me if I'm posting in the wrong area. So just to be short, I want to attend medical school in the near future but may have some harsh obstacles in my way. I am a 19 year old Pre-Med/Pre-Pharmacy student currently attending my local...
